Brilliant Experience
Fantastic Training for every dad to be! Even my Mrs wanted to listen in ot was that good. Highly recommend.
Really glad I did this
Gave really good, relevant information. Drew upon his own experiences to give a course on how to be a better dad and partner. Really glad I did this course!
Be the best Partner/Support and Dad you can be!
Great course for dad's who want to try be as prepared as possible for a baby arriving. Watched Gordon's presentation at a baby show in Manchester and straight away wanted to book on. My wife and I have done the NHS courses and the NCT course, but as expected and understandably most is tailored to the new mum to be. This course covers what to expect as a new dad, how to be the best partner/support you can be, as well as "be the best dad you can be". I was on the course with many first time dad's like myself, and we all have a watsapp group, and a discord group between all members of mantenatal, to discuss any questions, concerns or tips we may have.
I'm sure my wife, child and I will all 100% benefit from Mantenatal.
Would 100% recommend!
Brilliant and informative classes
Brilliant and informative classes led by Gordon, great for new dads to understand what’s about to come and a good laugh as well!
Essential for dad's new and old
Gordon is full of knowledge and tells it like it is. He has boosted my confidence, helped both me and my wife and made the up coming birth a thought of excitement rather than dread.
The course is packed with the information dads need but aren't told when they go to antenatal classes with their partners and more. He points out moments that will make things special to both dads and mums.
He's open, honest and happy to answer questions to help other dads.
10/10 5* would definitely recommend MANtenatal.
Genuinely helpful
Genuinely helpful
Even if it wasn't just strictly for men, it's an amazing source of really useful information in a format where you don't just immediately doze off and disconnect, we did the antenatal class provided by the NHS and it is useful for specifically the mechanics of birth but not really much else around before/during birth/after, where this course tackles all of those perspectives
10/10 must attend for dads to be
The MANtenatal course was really helpful and gave me a lot of confidence as a father approaching childbirth. Gordon was really good at pacing the information and presenting it in a digestible way that didn't patronise. I left feeling better educated, prepared and empowered with knowledge that means I'll better support my wife both through childbirth and once the baby is home. 10/10 couldn't recommend MANtenatal more.
Will 100% make you feel more supportive and prepared...
Gordon has a wonderful way of explaining things in the most unpatronising way. He creates a space in which you feel you can ask any question and have it answered professionally but also personally, and not like it's scripted. Lots of insightful tips to make the whole process of becoming a new Dad alot less daunting. Would recommend to everyone that wants to be a more supportive and conscientious Dad.
Absolute MUST for new Dads to be!
My Partner and I met Gordan during a Baby and Toddler show and after a short talk about MANtenatal I knew I had to sign up. Being a first time expecting Dad I am trying to be as prepared as possible and the 2 Virtual Group Sessions fit the bill.
They surpassed my expectations. Gordan provides content for both pre and post baby. Giving practical advice for all stages aimed at Dads, so you can support your partner, be as involved as possible and become the best dad you can be.
The group sessions are shared with other dads to be so we could share are worries / questions and support each other after the course.
I have a few friends all expecting this year and I’ll be recommending it to them all.
For the price, compared to some of the equipment you could buy for a new baby, this has to be the best investment…
Thanks again Gordan!
A must do for new Dads
Great course which really helped my confidence and with some practical advice. Gordon is great to listen to and the resources which you have to use are also excellent. On top of this I now have my squad of guys to chat to and share experiences with over the coming weeks and months. Highly recommended.
Awesome course that really increased my…
Awesome course that really increased my confidence ahead of becoming a Dad for the first time! Thanks Gordon will recommend.

I was a little apprehensive about becoming a Dad for the first time. But after meeting Gordon at a baby and toddler show and doing the 4 hour course I now feel ready and truly excited about the imminent arrival of our first child. A brilliant course couldn’t reccomend it highly enough for new Dads. Learnt some invaluable things. Thankyou a Gordon and Mantenatal
Superb, just do it!
Superb! Expecting our first baby in a few weeks, we've done a hypnobirthing course, and a zoom antenatal course, all of which were good but had no practical help or advice for dad's. I felt hugely unprepared for the challenge ahead, that's when I found Mantenatal, just finished the course and I feel so ready for what's coming, well maybe not ready, but certainly prepared mentally to deal with whatever challenges come my way.
Highly recommended to anyone.
Highly recommended for all new fathers-to-be
Mantenatal was a great course - it didn't take up too much time, but was a great resource for providing information and handy tips for fathers-to-be during both labour and looking after newborns.
My wife was also very impressed with the knowledge imparted and it generated useful discussion points on topics that we hadn't considered.
I would definitely recommend it for new fathers!
Essential learning for new Dads!
A very enjoyable course for all new dads.
Informative, enlightening, insightful, and fun! Whether it's affirming stuff you already thought you knew, asking those 'stupid questions' otherwise scared to ask, or learning something you'd never know about until you step into the delivery room with mum - this course has something for every new dad to build their confidence and prepare them for the journey ahead with mum.
MANtenatal also doesn't shy away from the nitty gritty. Gordon offers real-life advice, examples, suggestions and need-to-know stuff for dads which you won't find on a traditional antenatal course (still do these!).
The 'squad' community also offers a supportive network to share experiences and seek advice from other new dads in a safe space.
I'm really glad I signed up for MANtenatal and feel so much more confident in supporting my wife on our parenthood journey. Thank you Gordon for a great experience. Highly recommend! #bethebestdadyoucanbe
Gordon is absolutely brilliant
Gordon is absolutely brilliant, he talks to you like he actually gives a damn because he does. He doesn't lecture or sugarcoat anything but he is incredibly reassuring about the whole process, I honestly can't recommend mantenatal enough to any potential new dad!!
Absolutely brilliant for dads to be
Absolutely brilliant for dads to be. Some really good left field ideas that none of the other classes/books have even touched on. Looking forward to keeping in touch with the squad and seeing how everyone is getting on!
I throughly enjoyed this course
I throughly enjoyed this course! Would recommend to any new dads 100% as it helps you think and plan for the next few months. Going in I was feeling nervous about our new arrival andthe course with Gordon helped me get some confidence and that I am not alone in this journey!
Highly recommended for new dads
I did the live virtual 2 session course and it is excellent! Really thorough with practical examples and not just theory. I feel much better prepared now than I did before. Highly recommended to all new dads. Thanks Gordon for helping us
Worth the time
Great to build confidence confidence and gives an honest perspective and some tips to help you feel more prepared. Still a lot for you to do but gives you the tools you need to help on the way to having your first child. Would recommend
